i've got Bosch batt's now, and it's time to get some new ones. I'm searching local and somewhat limited on a budget. here are the top three, they're all pretty much the same in stats, just different in price. what do you think...
I have Interstate Batteries. Good warranty and customer service. Not bad, I got mine on a Military Discount for 82 bux a piece. That wholesale price i think
I'll have to disagree with that. I'm on a Grand Prix board and alot of people on there have the terminals literally fall out of the battery after a few years! Mine was starting to get old but working fine, so I replaced it with a Diehard. My brother took the AC Delco and put in his mustang. As he went to tighten the battery cables, sure enough, one of the terminals fell out!
Well There you go. 3 different batteries lol If u do go with Interstate , look in phonebook for an Innterstate shop in your area. You might get it cheaper than buying Same battery from a vendor.
Best batt. I have ever had was an Optima, lasted 8 years and they are clean. I have seen them in Auto Zone, the Walmart batt. is good for the price too.
i know you said you are on a budget but if you want by far the best battery i would go with odyssey batteries. i think a group 31 will fit one our trucks and theres is rated at 1,090cca and 2,150 peak cranking amps. There rated for 6-8 service life. I used to use optimas but i tried an odyseey in our sandrail because of size requirements and i am so pleased with it i bought one for my toyota truck and as soon as the ones in the 350 need to be replaced odysseys are going in. PC2150 S and PC2150 T - Odyssey batteries
After going thru one replacement set of Motorcraft batteries I decided to trust Consumer Reports and go with the Walmart brand. So far they work great. They have a 3 yr full replacement warranty before the prorate starts and if you ever have any problems then name a place you can find yourself in that doesn't have a Walmart close by to replace them.
